Lastly, we would like to give full credit for the CSS layout to Counterfeit who put a lot of hard work into it.

I messed up Question 8. That was completely my fault. I meant it to say 'single', but I wrote 'album'. When Retro Bug gets online I'll have him fix that - for the people who have already entered, don't worry - if you answered correctly for album, then you'll be awarded the points.

This only matters because it also affects Question 9, otherwise I wouldn't bother bringing it up at all lol. Any questions, feel free to PM.

I'm a silhouette, asking every now and then
Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?
I'm a silhouette, chasing rainbows on my own
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home.

I like the mix of questions, since it seemed the last few were too media oriented only. This is more trivia trivia with various categories. Kudos too the organizers of this event. Hope to send my list shortly.
